Eco-Friendly Plumbing Upgrades That Slash Your Water Bill

Why Go Green in California?

Recurring droughts and rising utility costs make water conservation a must for Bay Area households. These upgrades pay for themselves through lower bills and available rebates.

Upgrade 1: Smart Leak Detectors

Whole-home monitors like Flo by Moen or Phyn track usage in real time and shut water off automatically during a burst—preventing tens of thousands of gallons of waste and earning insurance discounts.

Upgrade 2: Greywater Recycling Systems

Redirect gently used water from showers and laundry to landscape irrigation. Alameda County rebates can offset up to 50 % of installation costs.

Upgrade 3: High-Efficiency Fixtures

1.5 gpm showerheads
Dual-flush 0.8/1.28 gpf toilets
Touchless 1.5 gpm faucets

Modern designs maintain strong flow while cutting water use by 20-30 %.

Upgrade 4: Hot-Water Recirculation Pumps

Deliver instant hot water without sending gallons down the drain. Timer-based pumps cost under $300 installed and save up to 12,000 gallons annually in a typical household.

Upgrade 5: Rainwater Harvesting

Install barrels or cisterns to capture roof runoff for garden use. A 1,000-sq-ft roof can collect over 600 gallons from a single inch of rain.

Rebates & Incentives

Check East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) and California’s Save Our Water program for fixture discounts, greywater incentives, and turf-replacement rebates.
